Hello, my name is Leticia Knudsen and I am honoured to be the Secretary General for PANAMUN XXIV. I am 18 years old and a current senior at the International School of Panama.  Although I was born in Brazil, I have lived in several countries, including the United States of America, Mexico, Panama, and the United Kingdom. My passion for MUN started in the 8th Grade in PANAMUN XX. In the same year, I had the opportunity to travel to New York City for a Global Classrooms conference where I represented Haiti in the General Assembly. Once I entered high school, I took part in PANAMUN XXI as the delegate of Canada in the Commission for Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice. During my 10th grade year, I took a year abroad in England where I had the opportunity to attend THIMUN for the first time. I was part of the Human Rights Committee where I represented Nicaragua. While still being in England, I was given the opportunity to apply to be a student officer for PANAMUN XXIII, as I was returning to ISP as a junior for the following year.
